Functions of circular RNAs in bladder, prostate and renal cell cancer (Review)

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of non‑coding RNAs formed by covalently closed loops through back‑splicing and exon‑skipping. circRNAs have been confirmed to play a vital role in various biological functions, acting as microRNA sponges and reservoirs, as well as combining with RNA‑binding proteins during the progression of multiple cancer types. Therefore, the present review evaluated recent research articles in PubMed that were published...
